I woke up in Elijah's arms to the smell of pancakes. I showered and got dressed for the day quietly not trying to wake Elijah up. Once I was fully clothed I placed my hand on the doorknob when Elijah woke up.
"Going somewhere?" He said and I winced. He came behind me and carried me to the bed. I giggled as he smiled and intertwined my hands with his placing them above my head. I used vamp speed to position myself on top of him and smirked.
"I have to go downstairs and make food for my kid." I said and Elijah smirked accepting he was defeated, or so I thought. He used his vamp speed to go on top of me, this time, his erection being pushed against my clit. He rolled his hips and I arched my back unable to move my hands as he still had them above my head.
"Keelin and Freya seemed to have taken care of that. Wouldn't you rather think of all the fun things we could do?" He whispered into my ear sending a shiver up my spine.
"I would love to, but I have to go make sure Hope is awake before she sees Klaus." I said offering a smile. He kissed me and got off me.
"I'll be down in a minute." He said and I smiled walking out the door. I made my way downstairs where Freya and Keelin were laughing as they made eggs and bacon with pancakes. They had already prepared a glass of blood for Klaus, Elijah and I. I smiled as I drank the glass and looked around for Hope.
"She's still sleeping." Freya said and I smiled.
"Where's Klaus?" I asked and they nodded towards the front porch. He was setting the table in the garden. I walked out and put a hand on his back.
"I thought a nice family breakfast would be the most efficient way to start bonding with her." He said and I smiled.
"You two are more alike than you realize. She doesn't hate you Klaus, she idolizes you and she never stops talking about how much she wants to meet you." I said and Klaus gave me a look as in asking if I was lying. Freya and Keelin came outside holding the food and Elijah followed behind with orange juice laughing at something his sister had said. I smiled and went inside to see if Hope was awake. I went to her room and found her brushing her teeth in her bathroom. She jumped at the sight of me and ran to me. Her little arms wrapped around my waist as I held her close.
"You're back!" She said and I squared down to her level. I placed a kiss on her nose and smiled.
"I am, and as I promised, I didn't come alone." I said and Hope's eyes screamed excitement.
